Question

(Lots of points) (dumb answers will be reported)

The proof that ΔRST ≅ ΔVST is shown.

Given: ST is the perpendicular bisector of RV.
Prove: ΔRST ≅ ΔVST

What is the missing reason in the proof?

Answer 1

Answer: A. perpendicular bisector theorem

Explanation:

Answer 2

Correct choice is A.

Explanation:

The perpendicular bisector theorem states that if a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the segment's endpoints.

Point S is on the segment ST. ST is perpendicular bisector of RV. Points R and V are endpoints of the segment RV. Then by the perpendicular bisector theorem,

SR≅SV.

Correct choice is A.
